"The Facebook scandal over selling customers’ deepest secrets for huge amounts of cash has accelerated signature-gathering efforts for a 'Privacy Act' initiative on California’s ballot.

Signature gatherers around the state have told MacTaggart the only people not interested in signing the petitions were folks in too much of a hurry. The idea of a law requiring customer permission to gather, exchange, and sell personal data was so attractive that by late February, the initiative had gathered and turned in 100,000 of the 365,880 valid signatures needed by April 24, 2018 to qualify for the ballot."
